Hello May! We begin with the Office of Accountability’s monthly meeting, this time in person at Lindsey’s. Two symphony date nights in a row! We stopped by Teakwood for delicious Burmese food before Wizard of Oz. The symphony plays the whole soundtrack to the classic movie starring Judy Garland. The next day, the symphony played…
The Crosstown Trail is a wonderful volunteer-assembled walking/biking trail that extends from the southeast to the northwest corners of San Francisco. They recently just celebrated the 5-year anniversary of the trail and added a “Double Cross Trail” to complete the X from the southwest to northeast corners of the city. It took us and the…
Here is a look back at our jam-packed month of April. We also visited Florida this month, but otherwise we were busy having adventures all around the Bay. First, Thai food for date night in the city. Vince, Alex, and I made the pilgrimage to Russian River Brewing Co. up in Healdsburg to wait in…
Our springtime baseball tour of Florida was perfectly timed, as we were very lucky with warm, sunny days and not much humidity. The visit was capped off with three nights in Miami Beach– my first time ever visiting Miami, beach or otherwise. We stayed right in South Beach at the Uma House, a very cute…
Alongside two MLB ballparks, we also managed to squeeze in two national parks in our very short amount of time in Florida. In fact, we did these two national parks and a ballpark all on the same day. So, we certainly didn’t have a lot of time to explore a ton of each park, but…
It’s time for our March recap! A month in which we had our second cookbook club; a camping trip in Pinnacles; and a surprise getaway to Stinson Beach. But it all began with a rainy day trek to the Oakland Museum of California’s White Elephant Sale. I picked up this set of four candlestick holders….
February included a big cookbook club dinner for Lunar New Year; a whole trip to New Mexico; and of course plenty of adventures right here at home. I made lots of progress on my custom San Francisco-themed mahjong set, finishing up the painting phase. Cassie and I visited the White Elephant Sale benefiting the Oakland…
There are two main routes connecting Santa Fe and Taos, New Mexico: The Low Road and the High Road, each named for its respective elevation. The Low Road follows the Rio Grande, while the High Road weaves through the mountains. If you’re making a round trip between the two cities, almost everyone recommended driving the…
Unless you’re an avid skiier or from the state, you probably don’t think of New Mexico as an attraction for winter sports. But it is! Located at the southern end of the American Rockies, Santa Fe is almost 2000 feet higher in elevation than Denver. This February, we decided to visit New Mexico for a…
Behold! The start of a whole new year! I set a goal for the entire year, which is a minimum of 15 minutes of movement every day. So we started it off with a January 1st run! Followed up by tacos in the Mission, as inspired by our return from Mexico City just the day…
December recap! What a month. We were somehow traveling half the time and yet still had such an abundance of wonderful adventures with our friends here at home. Jumping right in, here’s our flight home from our honeymoon to Portugal and the Canary Islands, passing through NYC. Library date with Cassie, visiting the brand new…
